In the "coldness" of the numbers, the first half of the Brasileirão 2025 ended on Monday (11), with Juventude's 2 x 1 victory over Corinthians at Alfredo Jaconi Stadium, which marked the end of the 19th round.

However, due to the Club World Cup, which took place between June and July, and also due to the round of 16 playoffs of the Conmebol South American, MANY ASTERISKS are part of the "landscape" of the championship table.

In total, there are 12 matches that still need to be played so that all teams have the same number of matches played.

Flamengo, for example, finished "first half champion" with 40 points, but with only 18 games.

Palmeiras is in third place with 36 points, but having played 17 matches.

That is, depending on the pending results, Verdão can overtake the red-black team when everyone has the same number of games. 

The same happens in the fight against relegation. 

Vasco opens the Z-4 with 16 points. However, the Giant of the Hill has 17 games, that is, two less than Vitória (18 points), the first out of the "confusion zone".

Mathematically, Cruz-Maltino can even overtake Corinthians, which is in 13th place with 22 points, but has already completed the 19 matches of the 1st half.

Fortaleza, with 15 points and in the penultimate position, also has 18 games and, therefore, can still overtake Leão da Barra.

And even Juventude, which is in the penultimate position with 14 points, has only 17 games, which means that it can also leave the Z-4, with a combination of results in the delayed games of each one.



⚽ The game

The word of the first half was "efficiency". After all, even with a smaller number of shots (4 x 6), Juventude left the field with an advantage on the scoreboard.

The Gaucho Alviverde knew how to defend itself, as Corinthians dominated ball possession, and opened the scoring with a strong header from Gabriel Taliari, after a cross from the left by Marcelo Hermes.

Timão returned from the break even weaker, without creating great chances, and saw Juventude - which had the debut of coach Thiago Carpini - extend the lead with Matheus Babi completing in the area the cross from Nenê.

In the final minutes, Matheuzinho took a quality free kick and discounted for Corinthians. 

With the result, Timão reached the fifth consecutive game without a victory in the Brasileirão, while Juventude returned to triumph after four matches.
